About Lois

Lois is a sweet, curious little girl with a whole lot of personality. She wants to be involved in everything, becoming quite the vocal companion when left alone; her foster mom says it sounds like Ariel singing about wanting to be where her people are. While she’s still learning leash manners, she mostly walks in circles around you, occasionally stopping to demand to be picked up. Potty training is a work in progress, as her curiosity often distracts her outside. Once inside, though, she tends to relieve herself immediately. Food is a major motivator for Lois, who acts like she's starving, making her training sessions fun and energetic. She does well with other dogs, even the bigger ones, and gets along great with children. Once she's worn out, she loves to curl up next to you for a nice nap. Lois would thrive in an active home filled with love and patience. With her sweet nature and playful energy, Lois is ready to bring joy to a loving family.
